October Luxe Box and Glymm Box

First things first, Luxe Box changed the box design! I actually like this new black box better. I also liked the personalized sticker, very nice touch!

I recieved Lise Watier Plumpissimo le gloss and Flash Lift Radiance Vial, Olay Professional Pro-X Eye Restoration Complex, OPI China Glaze Crackle in White and Kerastase Elixir Ultime.

I have not tried the Lise Watier gloss, since I'm still using my Citylips one, but I did try the Flash Radiance Vial. I did not like how heavily scented it was, and it lasted a little while before finally fading. I tried it under my makeup (though it is recommended to try over your makeup, to have it stay in place). It did brighten my face, and I was surprised how much was in the vial, I had enough left over to give to my mom.
I have been using Olay Professional Pro-X Eye Restoration Complex, and I don't mind it. My only problem with it is that sometimes it flakes off, and that feels like such a waste to me. Honestly, I'm not too worried about anti-aging products, so I can't gauge how well it's performed in that aspect. It does keep my eye area hydrated, fights puffiness and seems to minimize my under eye circles. I like that it can be found in drugstores!

I have decided to try the OPI China Glaze Crackle in White with Essie's Merino Cool.
I have yet to try the Kerastase Elixir Ultime, but I anticipate good results, since Kersastase is known to be an awesome line.

This was my first Glymm box, and I was not disappointed. I got a little jar full of Jelly Belly Jellybeans, Caudalie Premier Cru Cream, Vasanti Micronized Silky Eyeshadow in Tokyo, Lise Watier Lip Kiss Crayon Gloss in Red and Principessa Bacio Lip Balm.
The jellybeans were delicious! And I love that Glymm sends them in each box every month, it's a sweet treat.
I really like the scent of Caudalie Premier Cru Cream, it reminds me of apple pie. I also like how it moisturised my face with making it greasy (which isn't an easy task when you have oily skin). It also brightened it. My acne spots have lightened as well, and I don't have pimples like I used to (mind you this could also be attributed to my new skin regimen and use of a sample of Biotherm Skin Vivo concentrate). I would love to get a full size, but that will have to wait since it costs about $150 CAD.
I love, love, love the Vasanti micronized Silky Eyeshadow in Tokyo. I wear it as a blush, but would love to try it as an eyeshadow.
It comes with a little mirror, so no awkward fumbling while putting on blush (Lately I seem to be applying makeup in vehicles, and not at home. oops!). The color is gorgeous, and can be very pigmented, but I like wearing it a bit lighter. It also lasts a long time. This is definitely worth a buy.
The Lise Watier Lip Kiss Crayon Gloss reminds me of a lip stain with how it stays in place. The difference is that it is also moisturising. I like it a lot, but I just don't imagine wearing it very often.
I also love the Pincipessa Bacio lip Balm. It makes my lips super soft! My collection of lip glosses and balms cotinues to grow, haha.

So out of the 2 boxes for the month of October, I would have to say I love Glymm's box the most. Even though it had more make up (somehow I have a huge stash, and I hardly wear make up), I find myself using Glymm's items way more.
I can't wait to see what November's boxes hold, and also get my first Topbox!
